Glazing Silicone in Terregles

Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Terregles
Across Terregles, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. Conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens are all part of the job, with a sealant chosen for the joint. We work on glass-to-frame joints, shower screens and glass-to-glass joints, and people most often call us about leaks from the base of a shower screen and mouldy sealant around glass panels.
Many older Scottish homes still have timber windows set into stone walls. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.
Every job is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dumfries and Galloway.

The process
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. Outdoor work around Terregles depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- We apply and tool the new silicone.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
How to prepare
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Don’t leave a drip for the next storm
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
Do not use blades or scrapers near the bead when cleaning the glass. Stick to a soft cloth.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water runs along frames and down walls so it’s best dealt with straight away.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Frames and glazing around Terregles
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic.
Homes close to Terregles Church include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. For landlords with property near Dumfries station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. Managing a site like Maxwelltown High School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Silicone joins glass panels in many frameless designs. We renew it with a clear or matching glazing silicone.
Rooflights
Rooflight leaks can come from the sealant or the roof. We check which it is.
